So when Mom introduces him to her new friend, Jason, Alijah is excited. That is, until Jason starts to pop up too often. Alijah thinks two is a better number than three and he feels the rumble of anger start to grow in his tummy. The anger grows bigger and bigger inside of him. Will it explode? How can he get all of his mom’s time back again?
